I'm can't think of any specific publication that answers this question because it is exactly what many of us want to see in the literature. However, a new project just started that aims to answer this: Fire and Smoke Model Evaluation Experiment (FASMEE). I suggest you get in touch with this project team.

Hi Klaus,

there are a number of good studies from Australia that may get you some of the answers.  You might want to have a chat to Clare Murphy (most of her publications are under her maiden name Clare Paton-Walsh) http://smah.uow.edu.au/chem/contacts/UOW108757.html

she knows the field quite well and presumably also knows who does fuel assessment etc. For some reading, try http://ro.uow.edu.au/smhpapers/1052/

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Klaus, take a look at the final reports of the three projects mentioned in:

Hi, Klaus - 

I assume you are aware of the work done for large forest ecosystems, such as this link.

Also, I recommend contacting Bryan Jenkins at the UCD Biomass group.  They have a long history of burning experiments with ag and forestry fuels, including wind tunnel experiments with flaming and smoldering etc.

There are numerous papers in the literature on emissions from specific fuel types and burning conditions.  I suggest you start your search with Shawn Urbanski from the USFS Missoula Fire Lab.  The Second International Smoke Symposium is being held in your back yard November 14-17, 2016 in Long Beach, CA.  Check out:  http://www.iawfonline.org/2016SmokeSymposium/

This will be an excellent meeting with all the latest research from the field being presented and discussed, including a special session on FASMEE.

Thanks everyone for the hot tips. Safe to say I'm way behind on the literature. I'll be sure to share these with the atmospheric chemists here at ARB, as we wrap our heads around how fire plays a big role in California ecosystems and in the composition of the atmosphere.

May not be directly addressing the issue however I am enclosing some papers on biomass burninng at households.

I have gathered a list of Papers on GHG emissions from bioenergy related land-use, which is somewhat related to your question: https://agwobserver.wordpress.com/2014/03/10/papers-on-ghg-emissions-from-bioenergy-related-land-use/
